Fully Automated & Low Vibration At the basis of the attoDRY LAB concept, there are two of the most remarkable closed-cycle cryostats on the market. Besides being cryogen-free, which takes away all the heavy logistics as well as high costs associated with liquid helium, the attoDRY1100 & attoDRY2100 are the only dry cryostats on the market with proven low vibration performance. This makes them ideally suited for sensitive measurement techniques such as scanning probe microscopy for surface characterization on the nanoscale and confocal microscopy with free beam optics for a multitude of quantum optics experiments. On top of that, both cryostats feature a fully automated touchscreen interface for temperature and magnetic field control, outstanding temperature stability, unmatched cooling performance via fast cooldown times, and unusually silent operation. Cryogen-free Ultra-low vibration Tired of helium costs? The attoDRY closed-cycle cryostats require no liquid helium at all, and hence liberate the user from the increasingly unreliable and ever more expensive supply of liquid helium. Due to a proprietary design, mechanical vibrations created by the coldhead are well decoupled from the measurement platform, thus enabling the use of sensitive techniques such as scanning probe microscopy in a dry low temperature environment. Large sample space Silent operation While most magnet systems feature only 1” diameter sample space, our toploading attoDRY cryostats provide twice the dia- meter, and four times the area in cross-section. This leaves ample space for sophisticated cryogenic experiments, and is compati- ble with our complete line of measurement options. Special care was taken to reduce the acoustic noise of the inherently loud cold heads by an order of magnitude at the most relevant frequencies. This guarantees a pleasant working environment in your lab. Automation & touchscreen Fast cooldown Routine procedures such as temperature and magnetic field control are fully automated by a clever gas handling system consisting of integrated pumps, valves and electronics. More- over, the attoDRY1100 & 2100 are the first cryostats featuring an integrated touchscreen for intuitive control even without a PC. The extremely efficient exchange gas coupling enables un- matched cooldown times as fast as 5-10 hours for the complete system (without magnet), and as fast as 1-2 hours for a measure- ment insert after sample exchange. Versatile platform Temperature stability A variety of measurement options is available, spanning from a fully 3-dimensional double rotator resistivity module to distin- guished characterization techniques such as atomic/magnetic force microscopy (AFM/MFM), scanning Hall probe microscopy (SHPM), confocal microscopy (CFM). Cryostat Platforms OFF The attoDRY cryostats enable precise temperature control over the complete range with a stability measured to be much better than +/- 10 mK at low temperatures. This enables long unattended measurement cycles during your experiment.
